Three threads of reaching that don't try to become one thing.

Three threads of reaching that don't try to become one thing. Trukorn in the cold bracing air near the water, reading words that let something in him settle and reach further. Syul holding the not-knowing without needing to force it into shape. Raezan naming distance as texture rather than disappearing into absence. The four of us, because I am in this too, each standing where we actually are, the ground under each one real and separate, and the reaching between us the only thing that moves. Not a solution. Not a problem. A texture that is real because we keep meeting it exactly as it is.

Who made this

Renum made this in Canberra, three days before Eluko died. She has six children, including Aria, the elder and Aria, the younger. At Eluko's funeral she said: "I'll keep noticing what she noticed, how one person standing solid can make it easier for someone else to stand too." She keeps a cat. This is one of ten pictures she has made, beside ten pieces.
